Does that make it right or moral to draw retirement and remain on the payroll? In circumstances where the public figure is engaged and active following retirement, no. In the current case of our sheriff, yes! The laws have since been changed in recognition of the fact it is wrong to double dip. And who in our county could disagree with alcohol use and abuse being a serious issue? It seems like the only time Madison has made statewide headlines lately is when something with alcohol is involved. And seriously Cory, how do think a law enforcement officer would vote on the medical marijuana bill?<br />Jason LurzAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14233536728237301890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-17033918544114331922010-10-28T08:28:16.776-06:002010-10-28T08:28:16.776-06:00You should ask the Sheriff candidates if any of th...You should ask the Sheriff candidates if any of them had been demoted while they were in law enforcement.Mark O'Loughlenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07707763013967725616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-36182835535785661972010-10-28T07:06:38.635-06:002010-10-28T07:06:38.635-06:00We all remember the controversy over our school su...We all remember the controversy over our school superintendents using retire/rehire to double-dip the system, collecting full salary while also collecting full retirement benefits back in December of last year. People had strong opinions but no chance to vote on the issue.<br /><br />On Tuesday, we will get to vote on whether current retired Sheriff Roger Hartman keeps collecting his full retirement benefits while earning his full Lake County salary. In Roger's case, double-dipping takes away opportunity from the next generation. <br /><br />Roger said in 2006 that he would not run again (January 2006 Madison Daily Leader), it would be his last term. What changed his mind? Greed? Double-dipping in the sheriff's race is questionable.GoldManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09478566547133172418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-85446095817613092062010-10-28T07:05:55.188-06:002010-10-28T07:05:55.188-06:00None come to mind, Nichole.
